Vowels and diphthongs
Consonants that are not followed by a vowel letter are pronounced with the inherent vowel [a]. Other vowels are indicated with the following letters:
Letter Transcription TAI(Shan) & IPA
ᥣ ဢႃ a [aː]
ᥤ ဢီ i [i]
ᥧ ဢု u [u]
ᥥ ဢေ ee [e]
ᥨ ဢူ oo [o]
ᥦ ဢႄ eh [ɛ]
ᥩ ဢေႃ o [ɔ]
ᥪ ဢိုဝ် ue [ɯ]
ᥫ ဢိူဝ် e [ə]
ᥬ ဢႂ် aue [aɯ]
ᥭ ဢႆ ၊ ဢၺ် ai [ai]
Diphthongs are formed by combining some vowel letters with the consonant ᥝ [w] and some vowel letters with ᥭ [ai]/[j].
